Here’s the formula I’ve been using to write blog posts. I create the entire entry with no AI assistance, then input the whole post with the prompt, “Please critique this post.” AI comes back with thoughtful criticism because it’s a lot smarter than me, and then I make...

Yesterday I was awake at 3 in the morning. I had a decision to make: stew for a while or get up and write a blog post about bands. I chose the latter. At 6 p.m., my heart was beating through my chest after 30 minutes on the elliptical. I hate the elliptical, but I’ve...
